Sparkle GeForce FX 5700 Ultra @ accelenation

For some reason I get Sparkle mixed up with Sapphire, they both make video cards but for different GPU makers.

The card under review is the new midrange powerhouse FX5700 Ultra using DDR3. Most everyone will agree that the 5900XT is the better value though the 5700U just seems cooler.
"It can be seen that our FarCry test with maximized settings really punishes this poor little Sparkle card. Even when overclocked, it still only manages to get within 60% of the performance of a Radeon 9800 pro card."
Umm I don't think using a 9800 pro is what we would call fair, but it does give you a good cross section in performance.

Be sure to check out the XFX FX5700 Ultra the card was quite an overclocker.
